Gilli danda (the stick and peg game)

Gilli danda, the game of stick and peg, continues to be popular in rural India and small towns, though not so much in urban settings where lack of space has played spoilsport. This is a team game but can also be played by 2. For those who grew up thrashing gillis—something that requires great hand-eye coordination— here’s your chance to bring back happy memories, playing with your children. The hand-painted sticks lend this set a nice traditional touch.
The pouch contains: a gilli (peg), a danda (stick) and an instruction sheet.
